Abstract

Wireless mesh network (WMN) has evolved significantly in the recent years and become a very important and valuable method to deliver robust internet backbone to places that wouldn't be feasible running the conventional cables. Although still far from perfect, recent development and decrease in manufacturing costs, more advanced equipment are used to route data using intelligent wireless mesh network. One of the aspects which limit the performance of WMN is the interference. Interference became major issue with new devises being equipped with more than one radio interface. This work focuses on effect of interference on WMN's throughput as a result of utilizing dual radio in a WMN node.
